Chapter Nine- Without A Trace

I wake to his arms around my waist. Godthisfeelsgood, I think to myself. I want to stay here forever, in the warmth of my fallen angel. I shift my body weight to watch him sleep. He is perfect. I lose myself in his appearance and barely notice his eyes flutter open.

I watch those electric blue eyes scan me. I see them close and he moves in. I turn and slam my face into the pillow as he tries to turn me back around. I don't budge until he yanks me back over. He kisses me urgently and licks my lips for permission to enter, which I deny. He tries again. I deny. I do it just to annoy him. He gives up on permission and tickles me. I try not to laugh, but it doesn't work. He moves in quick, and we battle for thirty seconds before I try to annoy him again.

This time, I roll over. That was a bad idea since how I land on my butt on the floor. I hear Andy laughing hard on the bed and I scowl and stick my tongue out at him. He shuts up almost immediately as I run out of the room.

I walk to the kitchenette and make a pancake, but decide not to eat it. I put some pants and a shirt on when I get back to the room. I walk back out to find that I did not see all four of the guys passed out on the couch.

Well all except for Jake, "Nice tush." I totally forgot that I walked out here in nothing but a bra and panties. Crap, I think to myself. I facepalm myself and walk to the couch and sit next to him, "You were not meant to see that."

He laughs and stands, "It doesn't matter. I didn't see it." He winks at me and sticks his tongue out at me. I slap him, causing his tongue to go back into his mouth and I grab his face in between my hands. I lick his face to be weird and I laugh.

"That's gross," he says and he walks to the bathroom, slamming the door. I hear another voice, "Dude, you guys were loud as hell last night." I turn to see Ashley awake. My face turns bright pink and I stomp back to the room. I find Andy awake and I flop down on the bed next to him. He wraps his arm around my waist, trying to turn me over, "Babe what's wrong?" I turn on my back and point to the door. I see his eyes drain in color but renew themselves. "Don't worry about them. They are just mad because they aren't getting any." I nod. And I remember. Ohgod, I think, whatifI'mpregnant? Hewillleaveme.I immediately jump up and put my shoes on. "Where are you going?" he asks me. "To visit an old friend" I say, and I run out of the bus and take Andy's car to the pharmacy.

I look around the aisles forever since I've never had to look through them. I find them in the women's health aisle and I take one to the register. I see Meana and facepalm myself.Whyher, I think. I walk up to her register. She looks at me in disgust before I put my item on the belt. As she rings it up, she speaks up, "So who do you think is the father?" I look at her as if she had just killed an innocent hampster, "Its none of your business. Now how much do I owe you?" She turns the little price screen towards me and it reads $15.11. I hand her the money as she speaks again.
